ACUSHNET — The Board of Health has received air quality complaints about the historic Parting Ways Building but selectmen said they want more specific details before agreeing to any funding request to test the old building.

Health Board Chairman Thomas Fortin told selectmen this week about complaints his department received about the air, but there was no request for money to help underwrite an inspection.

The health office is situated upstairs at Parting Ways, and selectmen control partial use of the building space.
